The Directorate of Criminal Investigations has instituted inquiries into the alleged incident of indecent assault against, Sheebah Karungi, a popular music artist, after she formally made her complaint at CID headquarters on Tuesday.
During the interaction with the CID officers, Sheebah revealed the details and the individual who was involved and the related circumstances.
“In her complaint she clearly mentions the suspect and refutes the ongoing speculation in sections of the media that it was Andrew Mwenda,” Police spokesperson Fred Enanga said in a statement.
“In view of the above, a team of Detectives has commenced investigations on the matter to ensure justice for the victim.”
Enanga concluded; “we do thank Sheebah for taking the courage to report the matter and assure the public that as Uganda Police we take matters of Gender Based Violence seriously.”
Last week the popular female musician came out publicly to accuse a “prominent ageing Ugandan” guarded by SFC of trying to rape her as she rested in her car.
She said the alleged rapist had hired her to sing on his birthday party.
